the president. but, you know, lesli, it's hard for me to see someone sitting around their kitchen table saying, i don't know who i'm going to vote for, but when those jobs numbers come out, then i will decide. that's not how people decide whether they think the economy is good or bad. they do it on whether uncle charlie has a job or whether their kid finally has enough money to move out of the house and get his own apartment, things like that. so coming this close, we've been saying this was going to be very, very important, but this race is so close, i'm not sure in the end that it really is going to make all that much difference. >> as i understand you are going to have two key panels on this weekend's show to kind of break down the presidential election, the razor tight presidential election. >> yep. yeah, we're going to have every analyst, every commentator east of the mississippi river be with us sunday, and i hope they have a better idea who is going to win this thing than i do, because i'm at the point, lesli that i have no idea. this thing has been close from the start, but it has gott

of in the documentary. the journalist -- former journalist sharon and dr. leslie chow. sharon bedroomly was -- shannon excuse me, was with u.s. news at one point. why did you pick her? >> she had written a book called overtreated. and that book was sort of seminal for us in understanding that this -- that more is not better when it comes to health care. that more can actually hurt us. and it was her book that really explained that to us and therefore i sought her out to be in our film. >> here she is and others. >> the vast majority of doctors in this country are paid by a fee for service system. and that simply means that they get paid for each office visit. if they're surgeons they get paid for each procedure. if it's a radiologist, they get paid for each ct scan that they deliver. >> if i spend 5 minutes with you and then put in one of these stints, i probably get paid $1500. for me to spend 45 minutes on an established visit with a patient to make sure they're doing their exercise, and to try to figure out what their true problem is, i probably get paid $15. it's a completely irrational system. >>
